What backs it

On Friday, Virginia removed three Confederate monuments from Capitol Square, completing the Commonwealth's removal of all Confederate monuments from state property after a bill passed earlier this year.

Worth noting

The removals follow years of effort at city and state levels; similar work to remove Confederate monuments from public display continues nationwide.
